Add types, update signatures, and modernize docs for rbtools.utils.diffs.

Review Request #12569 — Created Aug. 24, 2022 and submitted

RBTools
release-4.x

Reviewers

rbtools.utils.diffs is used in a lot of diff-generation code, and is
sensitive to string types. These functions are old, lacking modern docs,
and contain positional arguments that are non-obvious.

This change adds type annotations to all the functions in here. It also
updates all documentation for our modern standards, and switches some
parameters to keyword-only (deprecating but still allowing them as
positional arguments).

Unit tests pass on Python 3.7-3.11.

as keyword arguments -> as a keyword argument

Shouldn't file_index_re have to come after the * in order to be a required keyword argument?

    1. Oops, yeah. I actually intended for that to not have to be a keyword argument. I'll just update the docstring.
